Are 2340 and 2400 SAT scorers treated differently?

^^Yes, GlobalDolphin. And because it’s just one test – one measure of success and potential out of many. And because any given day, a person w a 2370, let’s say, could get a 2400, and a person w a 2400 could get a 2370. The questions are tricky, and one person’s score one day could be a roughly similar (but not exactly the same) score another day. That’s why I’ve never understood the kid w a great score laboring over 3-5 SATs looking for that perfect score. At each elite school admissions session I’ve attended w my kids, the adcoms specifically address this subject. They Don’t like to see professional test-takers, and they consider scores within a general ballpark to be the same, for all intents and purposes, including that more elusive 2400.
